September 3, 2023 - (Chens@BengHiang) Dark leafy leather and incense. Lifted, elegant power, violet florals and exotic spice. Some lacy filigree. Fine supple velvets.

This just shouts out “ drink me with a lamb shoulder chop “. This bottle has been cellared since release and if it is representative, I would drink these over the next now or within the next 3-5 years. Quite enjoyable

January 7, 2023 - (ZMJM@Terence&MeiTing) Dark leafy sweetness, deep dark perfume, sweet leather, late forest floor. Soft berries, violets, clean, juicy and deep. Well developed.

November 13, 2022 - A somewhat subdued nose tonite. Hire robust body filled with dark blue and purple fruit. Plums, blackberries, and super ripe berries galore. A delightful 45 second finish. Well done.
